Today the island gets back its Woolworths – well a version of it anyway. Local business people have come together to create the Wee W. It opens today at 12 noon and I am sure there will be much excitement – lets hope it lives up to the legacy of missed Woolworths! It is even in the top Highland & Islands BBC news list!

Yes. I drove through town today at lunchtime and the crowds were amazing. I should have take a photo but I was driving. The queue to get into town went past the YMCA along Bayhead. I think I will wait until things quieten down!
